NBA super fan Jimmy Goldstein thinks L.A. has a snowball's chance in hell to beat the Memphis Grizzlies.
says L.A. has a snowball's chance in hell to beat the Memphis Grizzlies in the first round of the playoffs -- tellingGoldstein holds the record for attending the most NBA games in the history of the league ... so naturally, he was present for the Lakers' play-in game against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday.
Jimmy G says he was thoroughly unimpressed with what he saw from the Purple and Gold in the overtime thriller ... adding it just goes to show they're really not poised to make a deep playoff run this season.... and it wasn't a good sign that the Lake Show needed extra time to put them away.He also thinks L.A.'s hot run at the end of the regular season was more due to the fact that their opponents were tanking ... which would explain why they were able to put together some wins.
Long story short -- if you're a betting person, Jimmy thinks you'd be throwing money away to pick the Lakers to win it all. The Grizzlies vs. Lakers matchup starts on Sunday ... and if Goldstein is right, it won't be a long series.
